If not, why not? This is what non-tech savvy people like myself really need: an easy solution to ‘freeze’ a copy of our backups at regular interval, to prevent erasure of our files either by mistake or due to hacking / ransomware. I find it EXTREMELY CONFUSING having to navigate the B2 space on your website. I am not even sure if I managed to create a ‘bucket’ (or whatever you call it in that space) correctly, and then putting a copy of my backup in said bucket before locking it. Not user friendly at all.

Does B2 offer a feature explicitly called “Object lock”? Is this the “File lock” aspect of the API?

Is it possible to do it like a Lifecyle Rule? So my client (usually rclone) thinks it deleted the file but it is really hidden except unlike lifecycle rules, you cannot force it?

(I may have those details wrong too. Please correct me)
